The russian orthodox establishment doesn;t see any of the reported rise, lol. So many more self affiliating christians but so few people in the pews suggest, to both the orthodoxy and observers...that christianity, for those who reply in the affirmative..is more a moral assumption (interpreted individually by believers as what have you) and nationalistic appeal to tradition..than an issue of belief in the orthodoxy.
They're basically russias version of our lapsed catholics, only their portion of non-practicing self affiliators is substantially higher than the portion of non-practicing catholics in the US.
